AI Workshops for Teams & Nonprofits

From AI confusion to real usage. In one focused workshop.

Our AI workshops move your team from “we’ve tried ChatGPT once or twice” to actually using AI in their day-to-day work. Hands-on, non-technical, built for the people who do the job — not the IT department. Your team leaves with real AI fluency, not a demo they’ll forget by Friday.

Why a workshop

Most teams have “tried AI.” Very few are actually using it.

Somebody opened ChatGPT once, got a generic answer, and closed the tab. Somebody else uses it every day but won’t tell anyone. The rest are watching the hype and feeling behind. Ninety minutes, hands-on, with a simple framework and real examples from their actual work — and most people leave with genuine AI fluency and a habit they’ll keep. Not a keynote. A working session.

The return

Hours back — not “AI awareness”

We design every session around one thing: time your team gets back each week. You’ll see it live, on your own tasks, before the hour is over.

15 min → 30 sec

The everyday drafts

A client email, a first-draft proposal, a summary of a long thread — the writing that quietly eats the day.

Half the time

The bigger documents

Reports, decks, content, and research briefs — from a blank page to a solid first draft in a fraction of the time.

3–5 hrs / week

Per person, the goal

The realistic target we build toward: the recurring admin AI can take off each person’s plate, every week.

If each person saves even three hours a week, the workshop pays for itself in the first month.

What participants walk away with

Four concrete outcomes. Not “AI awareness.”

Outcome 1

How AI saves time in their role

Specific places in their actual workweek — email triage, drafting proposals, research, meeting notes — where AI is the obvious move.

Outcome 2

The SMART framework for better results

A simple, memorable way to structure any prompt — so the difference between a vague answer and a useful one stops being luck.

Outcome 3

2–3 use cases they can apply the next day

Built during the workshop, from their real work. Things they can open their laptop Tuesday morning and actually do.

Outcome 4

Real AI fluency and the confidence to use it

The shift from “I should probably learn this” to “this is a tool I use, like email.” That’s the whole goal of the session.

Your data stays yours

We teach AI you can actually trust with your business

The fastest way to get burned by AI is pasting the wrong thing into the wrong tool. Every workshop makes the safe path the obvious one — before your team touches a single real task.

What to never paste

A clear, memorable rule for customer data, financials, credentials, and anything private — so nobody has to guess in the moment.

Which tools are actually safe

Business accounts (ChatGPT Team, Claude for Work, Copilot) where your inputs aren’t used to train the model — and why the free consumer tools are different.

Guardrails from day one

Simple rules your whole team can follow immediately — not a 40-page policy nobody reads.

We’ll help you set it up

Optional help standing up a secure AI environment for your business, so the safe path is also the easy one.

What we cover

Four topics. Ninety minutes. No filler.

Step 1

How to think about AI (beyond the hype)

What these tools actually are, what they’re good at, and what they’re bad at. A 10-minute mental model so the rest makes sense.

Step 2

Why AI is a communication skill, not a technical one

The people who get the best results aren’t engineers — they’re the ones who can explain what they want clearly.

Step 3

The SMART framework

Set → Make → Architect → Refine → Tighten. A repeatable five-step method for prompts that get useful answers on the first try.

Step 4

Live, step-by-step prompt building

Watching it happen, then doing it themselves — using real tasks from their own work, not contrived slide-deck examples.

Tailored to each role

Not one class for everyone

Your bookkeeper and your sales rep don’t need the same AI. We build the examples and the hands-on exercise around what each person actually does all day.

Sales & BDWin back selling time

Outreach and follow-ups, call prep, proposal first drafts, turning notes into next steps.

Operations & adminClear the busywork

Email triage, scheduling, SOPs, meeting notes, and the document drafting that never ends.

Finance & bookkeepingExplain, don’t expose

Summaries, plain-English explanations, and reporting — with the data-security rules front and center.

Customer serviceFaster, consistent replies

Draft answers in your tone, pulled from your own knowledge, so quality doesn’t depend on who’s on shift.

MarketingOne idea into ten

Content, campaigns, and repurposing — a single asset turned into a week of posts, emails, and pages.

Owners & leadersA thinking partner

Research, board and investor prep, and pressure-testing decisions before you commit to them.

The hands-on half

The Progressive Prompting exercise

Participants build prompts in real time — starting vague, then layering in specifics — and see the difference instantly, on their own screen, with their own work. Workshops run 50–70% hands-on, because nobody learns AI by watching someone else use it.

Vague prompt →“Write me an email to a client.”
SMART prompt →“Draft a short email to a client who missed a payment deadline by 5 days. Friendly tone, first reminder, no late fees yet. Sign off as our accounts team. Under 100 words.”
Same model. Same 30 seconds. Two completely different outputs.
During & after

It doesn’t stop when the workshop ends

Monday is where training usually dies. So your team leaves with the tools to keep going — and we check back in.

Who it’s for

Non-technical teams who need AI to be practical — not theoretical.

Teams of 5–25 who mostly work with words and process
Organizations where “we should probably use AI” keeps coming up
Nonprofits looking to stretch a small team further
Agencies and service businesses worried about falling behind
Teams where one or two people use AI and the rest don’t
Leaders who want a shared language around AI, not just tools

Who’s running it

Jean-Noel Frydman

Founder, Digismart

You’re learning from someone who runs a business on these tools every day — not a consultant who read the docs last week.

Miami-based entrepreneur with 25+ years building businesses at the intersection of technology and operations. An early web pioneer — he founded one of the first online travel agencies, helping define how travel got researched, sold, and managed in the internet era.

Today he builds the same AI systems he teaches — the dashboards, automations, and workflows Digismart runs on and delivers to clients. Every example in the room comes from real, working use, not a slide deck. That’s the difference between knowing about AI and actually using it to run a company.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Is our company data safe if the team uses AI?

Yes — and it’s built into the session, not an afterthought. Before anyone touches a real task, we cover what should never be pasted into AI, which business accounts keep your data out of model training, and simple guardrails your whole team can follow. If you’d like, we’ll also help you stand up a secure setup so the safe path is the easy one.

How do I know it’s worth the money?

The whole session is built around time saved on real tasks, and you see it live — a client email that took 15 minutes done in 30 seconds, a proposal draft in a fraction of the time. If each person saves even a few hours a week, the workshop pays for itself in the first month. Pricing is published up front so there are no surprises.

Is the 90-minute session really enough?

It’s enough to get your team using AI, which is the hard part. It’s not enough to make anyone an expert — nobody claims that. The point is to get over the “where do I start” wall in one sitting and hand people a framework they can keep improving with. Teams that want more usually book a follow-up 4–6 weeks later.

Do we need to prep anything beforehand?

Almost nothing. Participants bring a laptop and access to one AI tool (ChatGPT free is fine). We’ll ask a few questions about your team ahead of time so the examples come from your world, not ours.

What if half our team already uses AI and half doesn’t?

That’s the most common mix, and the workshop is built for it. The framework is new to everyone — even daily users rarely have a structured way of prompting — so it gives the whole team a shared language.

Can you tailor it to a specific department or topic?

Yes. The format stays the same, but we tailor the examples and the hands-on exercise to the team — marketing, fundraising, operations, customer service, and so on.

In person or Zoom — does it matter?

Both work. In person has slightly better energy for the hands-on portion; Zoom is often more practical for distributed teams. We’ll tell you which we’d recommend based on size and setup.

How is this different from our IT vendor’s “AI training”?

Most IT-led sessions cover tools and security — what’s allowed, which subscription you have. Valuable, but not the same as teaching people how to get useful work out of AI. This workshop picks up where that one ends: not which tool, but how to use it.
